      Pros

      Great place to work -- everyone is interested in your development. I saw partners make time to chat with interns about their practice area and how they sell work, because they're serious about investing in their consultants.

      Cons

      Nothing specific to A.T. Kearney, but it does have all the drags of consulting -- the long hours, the travel, etc.

      I worked at Kearney full-time for more than 3 years

      Pros

      ATK provided with me exposure to senior clients, allowed me to learn and work directly with partners, and had a very humbled, friendly environment. We all worked hard, but it enabled me to leapfrog other non-ATK colleagues in terms of job position after leaving the firm.

      Cons

      At the time, it's brand recognition is not as high as McKinsey or BCG, though I would argue that the quality and prestige is just as high.

      Many great opportunities to get training and project opportunities. Colleagues are supportive and collegial. Ability to work from home when you're not on a project is great

      Cons

      Salary is lagging behind competition in North America for analysts. The firm is bigger and better than the brand suggests.
